Rogers wrote to Sam that “everything seems to be going smoothly in Chicago,” and that on the Webster & Co., situation he was “sure that we settled upon the wise and proper course.” He’d received Sam’s cable (not extant) and was waiting for Sam’s letter regarding the Uniform Edition possibilities with William Evarts Benjamin and Frank Bliss. Henry Irving’s stock had been delivered. Rogers two daughters, Mrs. Cara (sometimes seen as Clara) Leland Rogers Duff and Mary (May, sometimes seen as Mai) Rogers were to sail for Europe on Mar. 28; May had been nearly asphyxiated by accident and was doing what many folks did in those days — changing location for “improved air.” Rogers would cable Sam because his daughters wanted to visit the Clemens family if possible [MTHHR 47-8].
